The old account, @kottkedotorg, will continue to post updates for a few more days and then will go silent. HUGE 72 pt. thanks to John Resig (@jeresig), who scooped up @kottke some time ago to protect it from a spammer takeover and generously handed the keys over to me this morning. So many people have wrongly referenced @kottke in the past few months that it’s a relief to have it.

Two other things.

1. I have also been posting little extra links to Twitter — like this and this — stuff that doesn’t really fit on the site for whatever reason. I’ll eventually pull those links back into the flow here, but the only way to get them for now is to follow @kottke.

2. You may have noticed that at the end of each kottke.org post, there is now a “Post to Twitter” link. I have long resisted adding Digg This or Tumblr That or Stumble What or Jam This In Your Facebook links to posts, but increasingly people are sharing links and information on Twitter instead of on their blogs so I’m going where the action is. At least as an experiment. So, if you like something, click the link and tell your followers about it.
